>Yokai watch 3 total sales: 1.2 million
>Pokemon s/m sales in Japan After two weeks: 1.9 million
Can we end the "killer" meme now?
literally who is calling it a killer
they're drastically different games from the same genre and YW was just the first one to give them even a sliver of competitiontheyre both great games desu

Kotaku did, unsurprisingly.

Have you not seen the pokemon killer shitposting that plagues /v/ and /vp/ for months before and during the first game's release internationally?
Yes, Sun/Moon crushed YW3 in Japan this year.
1.9 million in its first three days vs. 1.29 million for YW3 since its July release in Japan.
The merchandise sales for YW are in freefall too. At the current rate, Digimon will surpass it in Japan by 2018/2019, and reclaim that #2 monster spot in the country.
Maybe if YW had better monster designs instead of a million recolors and downright abysmal Yo-Kai it would do better.
Or maybe Level 5 was pushing it too hard.
>>30412477
/v/ said YW would kill pokemon
they also said Sun and Moon would flop
it's commonly accepted that /v/ is the anti-/pol/, in that instead of always being right they're always wrong
I think YW is suffering from it being too Japanese and >>30413415. When Level-5 has a succesful franchise, they want to milk it out in as few time as possible. I think YW has had three different games in 2016. Layton also got a new installment every year until his story was over.

Thank fucking god, YW is such a boring game. And I'm including its sequels in the equation, the games are just automated ass. The only "good" part of it is the anime, and it should probably just stick to that.
>copy pokemon
>forget the copy the most important aspect: the battle system
Suyikaki preorders start bad, monster hunter xx is winning
>>30412258
Yo-Kai Watch! killed Pokemon in the onlympics,the meme will never end.
>>30412258
I just want YW2 in Europe so i can buy it, YW3 isn't appealing in my eyes.
>>30413619
2 isn't appealing either.
Does anyone else think Jibanyan has the most punchable face ever? Jesus look at that guy.
>>30412799
Fucking Gundam goddamn
>>30412799
Yokai based in America was a mistake
